Parent helplines and hotlines

did you know

Parent helplines provide free telephone support to parents and carers.

Helpline staff can answer your parenting question and provide information about where to go for further help.

Parents call the helplines for issues as diverse as breastfeeding, sibling rivalry, lice and toilet training.

Dial 000 if you’re in danger or need help with fire, ambulance or police. And keep a list of emergency numbers by your phone or in your mobile. For other parenting advice or support, ring a national helpline or the parent helpline for your state.
